LONDON, Nov. Lord Stanley, OF Preston, is
said to be about TO exchange the presidency the
board OF trade for the governor -generalship of

told that he has put dull man into one OF the

one. Stanley Is not great politician and never
Will be- but he is a highly respectable, civil, and
fairly competent gentleman OF a type which often

be trusted not TO embroil himself with parties or
persons, and generally to make highly respect
able ngurehead, ana perhaps something more.
